vim-patch:9.1.0199: Not enough tests for the slice() function (#27991)
Problem: Not enough tests for the slice() function. Solution: Test with multibyte chars, and in both Legacy and Vim9 script. Update docs to be clearer about how it treats composing chars. (zeertzjq) closes: vim/vim#14275 https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/ad38769030b5fa86aa0e8f1f0b4266690dfad4c9
